Performance matters to everyone - GRS ring users included. If they already
have a ring, they already have a handle on 2 system impacts when they bring

There are two structures IMS must have.
One is a VSAM extent map.
The second is locks (I think).
There are optional ones for shared queues, iirc.

As others have said, you do not need a coupling facility to run a sysplex.
We have a 'basic sysplex' with three members that communicate via CTC.
Sharable functions are quite limited, however. Most forms of 'data
sharing' in the DB2 sense (I don't know about IMS) require CF structures.
